The new Hayward Users' Guide is designed to help specifiers avoid costly mistakes caused by improper pipeline strainer selection or application.

Leading off with a comprehensive section on the basics of selecting a basket or Y strainer, the guide then takes the reader through the full line of Hayward metal and plastic pipeline strainers. Here, an extensive assortment of photos, detailed line and cutaway drawings, technical information, selection tables and additional application facts for each strainer model are included.

Following this is an up-close look at strainer baskets—describing the various types, providing construction details of both baskets and screens, and then offering extensive specifications on perforated screens and woven wire mesh screens.

Next, a series of Pressure Drop vs Flow Rate curves for simplex, duplex, Y, T and custom-fabricated strainers is included. Finally, data are provided on physical properties and chemical composition of strainers, as well as flow conversion factors, viscosity equivalents, metric- English conversions and suggested specifications.
